hi, I've just started having this error come up on my desktop pc with when I try and search for updates, yet on my laptop which uses the same internet connection has no problem searching for updates. I also try and use the extact same settings on both machines.
Any idea what this error means?

Download and install the
System Update Readiness Tool for Windows 7 and check if all is okay or not.
Download and run the tool, it will say that it's "installing"...it's actually running the readiness scan at this time so you should let the installation run to completion. The KB article says it will appear to hang at 60% completion and I've observed this
as well. Just be patient and let it finish. After the "installation" is completed, check that all is okay or not.
If this does not solve your problem, please reset windows update components.
If you have a question related to Windows Update, please post your question in

thanks but I'd already tried that, I've just fixed it though by running "netsh winsock reset catalog".
